Article here. If Mila Kunis doesn't think she's taken seriosly because of her looks, maybe she shouldn't pose in her underwear for GQ magazine. Excerpt:

'Mila Kunis thinks women can be taken seriously as comedians in Hollywood -- but it's hard.

"The bottom line is if you're an attractive female in this industry, people just take you as that: attractive. People aren't getting the opportunity to move beyond being attractive," she tells the August issue of GQ while promoting her new movie, Friends With Benefits, in theaters July 22.

"It's not only with comedy. It could be with drama or action or whatever. People are distracted by looks. It happens. I'm not saying it happened to me, but it happens," she continues.'

...if you sit around cleaning your guns all day and people think you may be in the he-just-might-be-loopy-in-that-Full-Metal-Jacket-way and then complain about it, well, maybe you ought to be looking in the mirror before complaining about them.

That's one of the stupidest statements I've heard in a long time. Anyone who's seen early movies with Lucille Ball knows what a stunning beauty she was, and look at what massive success she had in the comedy genre. Double duh! :-/
